The pair is expected to break out from a major support line and reach a low last seen in January 2018. The European Central Bank (ECB) held onto its rates for interest, lending, and deposit. Figures came in at 0.00%, 0.25%, and -0.50%. These figures mean that banks charge money to customers by depositing money into their accounts. Meanwhile, the interest from lending encourages expansion of businesses and the interest rate gives commercial banks a 0.25% spread from their lending activity. Despite retaining these rates, the central bank along with the European Commission continues to inject money in the Eurozone causing the value of the single currency to decline. On the other hand, the outlook for the Australian economy was bright based on the recently published reports. Westpac Consumer Sentiment edged higher by 4.1% on Tuesday, December 08, for the month of December. The previous record for the report was 2.5%. FinanceBrokerage - Market News: EUR/AUD Chart
